Abstract

Denial of Service (DoS) attack is a type of cybercrime when an internet site is unavailable to be accessed by the user. The DoS attack is one of the popular attacks which can be launched by using a single machine and could take down many web servers by sending a lot of request to the server until it is disconnected. The objective of this paper is to simulate the launch and prevention against the DoS attack towards the website. The simulation of DoS attack is implemented by using ActivePerl Language and tested by using Slowloris DoS Attack. Both software shows a good combination of simulation program because it supports each other to exhaust the available connections on the servers. The result shows that the website connection is successfully unavailable to be accessed by legitimate user. In addition, the website still could not be served even clearing the cache of the browser. Finally, this paper discusses about future solution of DoS attack and recommendation for secure environment architecture.
